3. A bag of chocolates is labeled to contain 0.384 pound of chocolates. The actual weight of the chocolates is 0.3798 pound. a. Are the chocolates heavier or lighter than the weight stated on the labell Explain how you know. b. How much heavier or lighter are the chocolates than stated on the label? \( 5 h_{0 m} \) your reasoning.

The actual weight of the chocolates is 0.3798 pounds, which is lighter than the labeled weight of 0.384 pounds. We can see this directly by comparing the two figures; since 0.3798 is less than 0.384, the chocolates fall short of the labeled weight. To find out how much lighter the chocolates are, we simply subtract the actual weight from the labeled weight: \( 0.384 - 0.3798 = 0.0042 \) pounds. Therefore, the chocolates are 0.0042 pounds lighter than what's stated on the label. This slight difference could be attributed to packaging variations or production tolerances!
